More on Warrior Strength of the Heart

We need energy, commitment, & courage not to run from our life nor cover it over with any philosophy--material or spiritual. We need a warrior's heart that lets us face our life directly, our pains, limitations, our joys and possibilities. this courage allows us to include every aspect of our life in our spiritual practice: our bodies. our families, our society, politics, our earth's ecology, art, education. Only then can spirituality be fully integrated into our lifes.
Jack Kornfield A PATH WITH HEART

The arduous difficulties we encounter are the very challenges we need in order to stretch ourselves and thereby expand our boundaries.
In the end, it is life itself which is the teacher, serving us up perfect opportunities to do the inner work of growing up in strength and wisdom.
